The study of finches led to the development of one of the most important scientific theories of all time. In December 1831 a naturalist called Charles Darwin boarded the HMS Beagle, bound on a surveying voyage of South America. Whilst...

In this special, 5th week edition of Nature League, Brit explores the concept of nature and life on Earth in the context of another discipline in a segment called "Nature+". In this episode, Brit is joined by philosophy professor Dr....

In this Nature League Lesson Plan, Brit explains the mechanisms and nuances of evolution and speciation.

In this video, we explore the concept of variation within populations, using iguanas as an example. Understanding and appreciating variations helps us understand how different individuals within a population adapt and survive in their...

See how different attributes are naturally selected in different environments, and note some core principles of evolution along the way.

Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution is perhaps the most famous, and certainly the most controversial, scientific theory ever developed. First published in 1859 in a book titled, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or...

Genes are the true replicators, which can help explain a variety of counter-intuitive traits.

In this Nature League Lesson Plan, Brit introduces the plant kingdom, including their origin story, relationships, adaptations, and awesomeness.

This video discusses the concept of variation in a population and the factors that cause it, including genetic inheritance, mutations, and environmental factors. The video then goes on to explain the theory of evolution and how natural...

This video explains the theory of evolution through natural selection, as proposed by Charles Darwin in 1859. It explores how organisms adapt and change over time through genetic mutations and environmental pressures, leading to the...

Genes are the true replicators, which can help explain a variety of counter-intuitive traits.

Good incentives are no substitute for good citizens.



Human beings, notes Sam Bowles, a Research Professor at the Santa Fe Institute, are complex, psychological beings given to all sorts of motivations well beyond naked...

In this video, we explore the concept of natural selection, proposed by Charles Darwin. Natural selection is a process where individuals with traits best suited to their environment survive and pass on these favorable traits to their...

A video created for, and aimed at primary school science students learning all about plants. This video will teach students about the relationships plants and animals have with each other.

This video discusses the life and work of Charles Darwin, focusing on his theory of evolution through natural selection. The video concludes by discussing the impact of Darwin's theories on various fields of study and the controversies...

In this De-Natured segment of Nature League, Brit breaks down a recent scientific journal article about the impact of biodiversity on extinction vulnerability in terms of trophic redundancy. Article citation: Dirk Sanders, Elisa...

In this Nature League Lesson Plan, Brit explores the four main categories of communication for life on Earth, and discusses the realities of interspecies communication. Guest starring: Adrian Adams as the bit partner, Sean Kirkpatrick as...

We touched upon sexual selection when we learned about natural selection. Essentially when there is a variance in the reproductive success of a particular sex for a given species, secondary sex characteristics will develop in that...

After going through Darwin's work, it's time to get up to speed on our current models of evolution. Much of what Darwin didn't know is now known and understood very well, so we can meticulously go through much of the evidence we see for...

On this special edition of Nature League, Brit explores nature in the context of engineering by describing and displaying some examples of high tech and everyday biomimicry.

In this De-Natured segment of Nature League, Brit breaks down a recent scientific journal article about the increasing nocturnality of mammals around the globe. Article citation: Gaynor, K.M., Hojnowski, C.E., Carter, N.H., and...

Fossils discovered within rocks led scientists to begin to change their ideas on the creation of life on earth. Charles Darwin's 5 year voyage on HMS Beagle led to him collecting different flora and fauna from the countries he visited....
